Hello,

I want to transform blob ETag to 64-bit number. Can I count on the fact that ETag is 15-digit hexadecimal number in future?

Thanks.

    The format of ETag for blob storage is not set in stone and we do not recommend setting a dependency on the format. You can consider setting the number in the metadata field or using blob index tags.

    Hope this helps. Let me know if you still have question or need further assistance.
